Her Majesty's Mails

Nor
is
this
all,
nor
the
worst:
these
noises
are
very
frequently
varied
by
what
is
anything
but
a
lively
tune
on
the
engine
whistle,
but
which,
supposing
the
signal
lights
to
be
against
us,
or
Cerberus
asleep
at
his
post,
is
too
often
a
round
of
screeching
and
screaming
enough
to
waken
the
Seven
Sleepers.
Whatever
be
the
general
character
of
the
work,
we
are
bent
on
enjoyment
during
this
particular
journey.
The
country
through
which
the
train
is
now
proceeding
is
but
thinly
supplied
with
towns,
hence
the
number
of
letters
received
is
much
smaller,
and
we
may
avail
ourselves
of
the
opportunity
which
this
break
in
the
character
of
the
duty
gives
us,
to
examine
more
closely
and
from
our
own
point
of
view,
a
few
of
the
letters
which
are
waiting
to
be
despatched.
The
sorters
also,
glad
of
a
little
relaxation,
have
produced
from
their
hiding
places
under
the
blue
cloth-covered
counter,
an
oval
kind
of
swing-seat
attached
to
it,
which
turns
outside
somewhat
ingeniously
upon
a
swivel,
and
seat
themselves
at
their
work.
